There are over 20 statues and monuments on Parliament Hill. Should they all come down?
Don’t know…. Maybe.
How often do you think the average person goes to a museum or reads a history book? Seeing a statue or monument might actually prompt them to learn more about someone.
The ‘average person’ who doesn’t read or go to museums shouldn’t be encouraged to get their history from statues on street corners. Their view is going to be rather incomplete, to say the least.
